16.1

Dushan Hemantha to Glenn Maxwell, out Caught by Pathum Nissanka!! Oh my! Nissanka has made up for the drop catch with a tougher catch. He will be a relieved man. Flighted delivery on off, Maxwell sits down and belts the reverse sweep towards backward point. He struck that flat and seemed to have got enough elevation, but Nissanka times his leap to perfection and takes it over his head, falls to the ground and still manages to have control on the ball. Third wicket for Hemantha and he's pumped.

Dushmantha Chameera to Josh Inglis, FOUR, what timing! 114.5ks leg-cutter on off, not full or anywhere close to the driving length, but Inglis stays in the crease and drives it on the up, down the ground and the timing beats the long-off fielder

17.5

Dushmantha Chameera to Josh Inglis, out Caught by Dunith Wellalage!! Chameera is pumped! He has a few words to Inglis as he goes towards his team mates to celebrate. Not sure it was required. 140ks well-directed short ball, angled across and Inglis is rushed on the pull, the ball takes the top-edge and goes straight up,

18.3

Maheesh Theekshana to Cooper Connolly, out Caught by Kusal Perera!! Connolly perishes in search of quick runs. So far so good from Theekshana - 2 runs and 1 wicket. This is the off-break and there's a hint of away spin, Connolly kneels down to play the slog sweep and gets a top-edge behind the keeper, Perera moves across from short third and holds on.

Xavier Bartlett to Pathum Nissanka, SIX, ufff! That's a shovel from Nissanka. Wrong line from Bartlett - angled into leg, Nissanka stays rooted to the crease and helps it over long leg. Used the pace of Bartlett and sent it 73 meters long
